Hey guys,
Do you know that Joomla 3.7.0 Release Candidate 3 is now available? This is intended to be the last development version before the release of Joomla! 3.7.0 stable planned on April 25th, 2017. Please do not upgrade any of your production sites to this Joomla release because this is a Candidate Release.
Extension and template developers are encouraged to work with this release in order to prepare extensions for the stable release of Joomla! CMS 3.7.0. Besides, Isis template is strongly recommended to use to work with the new features shipping with this release instead of the Hathor template.
